To all York College Medical Center Employees and Trustees:

We have been given a generous grant by an anonymous donor. Theterms of the grant stipulate that the money can be spent to forwardthe “spirit” of the York College Medical Center’s mission,especially if it benefits the staff and community as a whole. Noother specific instructions were given, meaning that as acommunity, we can use the money as we please. The Board ofDirectors have decide on two options that employees must voteon:

Option 1: The money can be distributed such that EVERY employeegets ALL of the following:

A guaranteed $5,000 raise every year for 3 years, for a total of$15,000,

A minimum of 4 weeks paid vacation for all employees

Up to 2 free meals per day in our fabulous cafeteria (it’s agood cafeteria)

Option 2: All the money goes into a trust that will be used totreat patients for FREE. This includes all surgeries, visits,therapy etc. (Just like St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital). The onlycatch is, the patients must reside in Queens, NY, unless they arean employee, in which case residency is not an issue. (ALLemployees and their dependents will get free system wide care aswell)

Which option will you vote for and why? You must justifyyour reasons and link it to some of the topics we discussed inclass. Do this in a minimum of 5 paragraphs.
